01-29 18:38

Matt:

Yes…..I hope he enjoyed himself

01-29 18:39

Mr. Cork was interesting. Kind of quiet at first.

After all, it was his documentary.

01-29 18:39

Maybe you will still have a beautiful evening by the end of the day, Steve!

Yes, that is true.

01-29 18:57

Hawaii_Steve:

Well.  I won’t be vacationing there.

01-29 18:58

Rush:

Yes, Mike, there were hangings there!

01-29 18:58

Mike in DC:

All in all, I’d prefer the Royal Hawaiian

01-29 18:58

Hawaii_Steve:

Grim.

LOL Mike.

01-29 18:58

Rush:

The next one  is about that very thing!

01-29 19:02

Matt:

Grim

01-29 19:02

Rush:

Hello, Hounder!

01-29 19:02

Hawaii_Steve:

Nothing like a man who likes his work.

01-29 19:02

Rush:

Good evening to you!!!

How are you this evening?

01-29 19:03

Hawaii_Steve:

Hi Hounder. You just missed at finely tuned execution.

01-29 19:03

Rush:

Our final extra is the trailer for “Charlie Chan in London”

We will share that just before watching tonight’s film!

01-29 19:03

Mike in DC:

yay

01-29 19:03

hounder:

tired but good.

01-29 19:04

Rush:

Yes, to the above, Steve.

01-29 19:04

Hawaii_Steve:

oh, surprise.

01-29 19:04

Rush:

I think the executioner(s) saw it as a job and nothing more.

01-29 19:04

Mike in DC:

“our chief weapon is surprise.  surprise and fear…and…”

01-29 19:05

Rush:

Yes.

It all seemed so “matter-of-fact”

01-29 19:05

Hawaii_Steve:

True Rush.  Matter of fact, as it were.

01-29 19:05

Rush:

So, we get a hint of what Paul Gray was facing in tonight’s movie.

01-29 19:06

Hawaii_Steve:

Harsh.  Grim.

01-29 19:06

Rush:

Happy to hear the “good” part, Hounder!

Yes, Steve…for sure!

01-29 19:06

Mike in DC:

yes…I wonder if the “death vigil” as portrayed in the film would have acutally occurred in 1930

01-29 19:06

hounder:

trying to rebuild the front deck and i  haven’t done much of that so i’m out of shape for it.

01-29 19:07

Rush:

Maybe it was sort of like that in the early ’30s.

01-29 19:07

Hawaii_Steve:

These extras are great.  I will looking forward to references to them in the feature film.

01-29 19:07

Rush:

The guards accompanying the condemned man….

01-29 19:07

hounder:

i believe that in the old west hanging were a social event with picnics and such. sad.

01-29 19:08

Rush:

Yes.

That is a sad thing for sure, Hounder.

01-29 19:08

Mike in DC:

Yes.  I just wonder when the element of surprise was added.  Paul Grey was certainly very aware of the hour of his demise.

01-29 19:08

Hawaii_Steve:

Hounder.  I believe that you are correct.

01-29 19:08

Mr & Mrs Phil:

The air force is providing air support to the fox hunt

01-29 20:21

Rush:

Reno…..

01-29 20:21

Rush:

Note how the airplane sound connects two scenes….

01-29 20:22

Nothere:

The pigs taught the foxes to fly. Were gonna need guns for this hunt.

01-29 20:23

Godwinshelley:

airplane sound also indicates passage of time

01-29 20:24

Mike in DC:

Fox looking good in Kevlar…

and airplane sound gives the generic rooms a military feel

01-29 20:24

Rush:

True, Mike.

01-29 20:24

Friend and Foxx:

Aw, more MUSHY LUVVVVVVVVV stuff.  Ick!

01-29 20:25

Rush:

Again: NEVER “wait” to deliver important information in a murder case!!!

01-29 20:25

Rich in Maine:

You have a fast car……

01-29 20:25

Mike in DC:

vroooom

01-29 20:25

Matt:

Hold your hat Charlie

01-29 20:25

Mike in DC:

01-29 20:26

Godwinshelley:

Especially do NOT wait for Chan in his ground floor office when you want to say “and the killer is …

01-29 20:26

Rich in Maine:

that hood is 20 feet long

01-29 20:26

Matt:

CC lol

01-29 20:26

Rush:

Possibly this scene was shot in the Thousand Oaks area of Los Angeles.

01-29 20:26

Mr & Mrs Phil:

How are they going to kill the fox if none of them have guns?

01-29 20:26

Rush:

Maybe it’s all about the CHASE?

01-29 20:26

Mike in DC:

I think the “hunts’ were more like fox chases

01-29 20:26

Mr & Mrs Phil:

Old bunny can really handle a horse.

01-29 20:27

Mr & Mrs Phil:

Apparently Lady Mary tried to go one on one with the fox and came out short

01-29 20:27

Rush:

He was sobered up for the ride!

01-29 20:28

Mr & Mrs Phil:

I think that nurse played the good witch in the Wizard of Oz

01-29 20:28

Nothere:

Oh look the killer has a chance to take her out before she can talk. No trap here. Nope none at all.

01-29 20:28

Rush:

Interesting, Phil, about the possible Good Witch!

01-29 20:29

Nothere:

Glenda

01-29 20:29

Mr & Mrs Phil:

Let sleeping horsed lie.

horses

01-29 20:29

Rich in Maine:

01-29 20:30

Nothere:

But is the killer done horsing around?

01-29 20:30

Mr & Mrs Phil:

I’m looking around at all of you

01-29 20:30

Mike in DC:

Well, it can’t be Nothere

01-29 20:30

Nothere:

Your not looking at me. I’m hiding behind Mike.

01-29 20:31

Mr & Mrs Phil:

Not there is the nowhere man the Beatles sang about.

Excuse me, Nothere

01-29 20:32

Nothere:

So what do you order for your last meal?

01-29 20:32

Mr & Mrs Phil:

Doesn’t anyone go to sleep at this place?

01-29 20:32

Rush:

Bunny looked suspicious, but he was probably looking for his flask in that drawer!

01-29 20:32

Mike in DC:

this movie must have the record for most smoking in a Chan film

01-29 20:33

Rush:

Mike, I think you are right!

01-29 20:33

Mr & Mrs Phil:

A curious piece of trivia.  See that deer head on the wall?  That’s the way it’s done in the US.  Those other racks are done European style.

01-29 20:33

Nothere:

And the smoke wasn’t caused by number one son.

01-29 20:34

Rush:

01-29 20:34

Nothere:

Ah good eye Phil. They bought their trophies.

01-29 20:34

hounder:

01-29 20:34

Rush:

Note: Number One Son, Lee, appears for the first time next week!

01-29 20:34

Mike in DC:

01-29 20:34

Godwinshelley:

01-29 20:34

Mr & Mrs Phil:

01-29 20:35

Rush:
